That's exactly what my mom said too! Now my brother and I are both on Adderall AND antidepressants in our 30s. Only one sibling came out neurotypical.
AND NO WONDER SHE DIDN'T PUSH FOR ME OR MY BROTHER TO GET DIAGNOSED, LEAVING US TO FIND OUT IN OUR 30'S AFTER SOME TOUGH YEARS AND DEPRESSION.
I WAS WAITING FOR THE SMART TAKE WHERE SOMEONE TELLS CARTER THAT HE DOESN'T UNDERSTAND ADHD AT ALL & THAT LUCY'S MEDS AREN'T A CRUTCH BUT WE'RE IN A WHOLE OTHER SEASON NOW SO I DOUBT IT'S HAPPENING. NO WONDER MY MOM DIDN'T TAKE HER ADHD MEDS IN THE 2000'S WHEN SHE NEEDED IT IN NURSING SCHOOL.
NO I DO HAVE MORE OPINIONS ABOUT ER SEASONS 5-6 (not done with 6). THEY SHAME LUCY KNIGHT FOR TAKING PRESCRIBED RITALIN AND CARTER SAYS SHE'S AN ADULT WHO SHOULD'NT BE DEPENDENT ON THEM. AND LUCY FEELS BULLIED INTO NOT TAKING THEM ANYMORE WHEN SHE HAS A REAL CONDITION. AS A WOMAN ADHD-HAVER, WTF.
Dr. Weaver:
- Supported Jeanie throughout her HIV+ discovery. Helps her adopt a child.
- Pushes Benton to not view his son's deafness as a disability by pushing him towards ASL.
- Let's Carol choose what tasks she can handle while heavily pregnant.
But she's abrasive sometimes so she's evil!!
I have a lot of thoughts on ER season 5-6, but lemme tell you this, if you thought George Clooney's character was a loveable rogue who's justified in all his actions but think Kerry Weaver is a shrill bitch, you're likely sexist :)
If there are 0 Kerry Weaver stans, assume I am dead.
Being in AZ means Daylight Savings faux pas don't happen...like ever. AZ doesn't do DST. My partner and I have different phones, yet they both switched from AZ Time to Mountain Time during the night.
...I got to work an hour earlier before I realized my clock was off by an hour...
Hopefully it gets better. I didn't like the beginning of season 4 either, but it definitely kicked up in the second half.
"Not a morning person" is a shallow, low-stakes character flaw. Like when fanfic Mary-Sues have the only negative flaw of "being too clumsy." IT'S NOT A REAL WEAKNESS.
Conflicted opinions on last night's The Pitt episode. The child firecracker story broke my heart. I'm happy Santos' is shown having stressors that aren't just about her charts. Joy...is written like a fan fic character. It's like they took writing tips from Marvel or something with her.
ER season 5 is just not as enjoyable in general. Carter went from naive bean to mega-ass. Lucy Knight reminds me of The Pitt's Javadi but less compelling. The other new med student feels like a cartoon character (waiting for us to find out he smokes weed or something).
SEASON 5 CARTER SUCKS
Scrunchy baby
ER Season 5 Noah Wyle is de-twinking into The Pitt Noah Wyle 😭😭😭😭
when they fuckin sing Good Riddance by Green Day at a funeral in ER
U can't make me hate pro-choice Dr. Weaver.
what do you mean our 20 year old water heater is a ticking time bomb ??
season 4 of ER is my The Pitt season 2. I'm waiting for Mariska Hargitay's character to get written off soon for Law & Order SVU.
then she told me I should go on more walks which makes me wonder if she knows what rowing is. Rowing is a full body workout!!!!! My logbook shows i rowed 3803m (2.36 miles) just yesterday.
yeah buddy that's moderate exercise. I'm hitting 75 minutes of rigorous exercise every week which is the rec. I'M WEARING A FUCKN SIZE SMALL T SHIRT THAT FITS THE SAME AS THE DAY I BOUGHT IT 5 YEARS AGO & YOU'RE SAYING I NEED TO LOSE WEIGHT?
When I told her about my 25 minute rowing sessions every week, she told me "um actually it's 150 minutes of moderate exercise."
fuckin hate my doctor. I went from 125lbs to 136lbs & they gave me a lecture on how I should eat better while handing me a packet on a low fat diet. Ignored me when I said I started serious rowing exercises a year ago. Ignored my abs, my increasing arm & thigh muscles.
im talking about ER because The Pitt Season 2 isn't hitting like Season 1.
lol but i still love her character even with the flaws.
ok S4 Kerry is more nuanced enough to have characters that hate her. It was hard for me to have the show tell me she's a villain when she was the only character who supported an HIV+ coworker to stay on. Now we got more of a mixture of trying to be supportive while still pushing the boss's agenda.
We're on season 3 of ER and this show keeps trying to tell me I'm supposed to hate Dr. Weaver when she's literally the best???
im not included in this statistic. I haven't had rodeo break since high school.
$20 that Disneyland is filled solely with Southern Arizonans today who are on Rodeo Break.
Zach truly is green and retired now ;_;
the fuck you mean they're not gonna make anymore Smiling Friends :(
